Comparison of soft-gating L1-ESPIRiT at end-expiration and respiratory motion-resolved L1-ESPIRiT reconstruction in a CF patient with strongly irregular breathing and respiration drifts (also shown in Fig 3 and Supporting Video S3). Due to the large variation of the respiratory motion and drifts, we kept 60% of the data as shown above and then performed respiratory motion-resolved L1-ESPIRiT reconstruction on the remaining data. Yellow arrows point out the features that still suffered from blurring artifacts with soft-gating, while the respiratory motion-resolved method was able to delineate the small pulmonary vessels and provide a sharp diaphragm.
